4.0 out of 5 stars
Great introduction to strength training`,
By A Customer
This review is from: Strength Training: Your Ultimate Weight Conditioning Program (Sports Illustrated Winner's Circle Books) (Paperback)
As a novice, I found this book to have lots of detailed information without being so technical to make it unreadable. The author's credentials are impressive, he carefully explains how the muscles work and how each exercise helps certain muscle groups. The author includes plenty of technical info. for those interested, but it's all in an easily readable format and the technical info. can be skipped for those not interested. The book provides rather dated black and white photos next to text describing how to do each exercise.

I have one of the original copies of this book. It is an invaluable strength training resource. If you want to construct your own program then this is the book to get. Advanced enough for the expert and simple enough for the beginner. Buy it !
